My copy of THINK C 4.0 has been giving me trouble.  First, it won't
print documents properly on an Imagewriter I--after a few lines, its
starts spewing out garbage.  THINK is doing something strange in its
print routine, because it takes about five seconds from the time I
issue the command to the time the printer is activated--this is much
longer than with any other application I have encountered.  (And these
are very short documents I'm printing.)  Secondly, the THINK C application
seems to have a built-in time bomb--if I try to run another app after
THINK C, I have a 50% chance of crashing the system.  My code is not
the culprit, as I have yet to compile, let alone run, anything.

Any help would be most appreciated.  This is very annoying.

Thanks,
Ken McDonald
